Braking System Stationary Vehicle Vehicle Management The stationary vehicle management ensures secure footing in many situations. The following systems influence the stationary vehicle management: • Aisin 1000 torque converter • EPB, electromechanical parking brake • ESC, hydraulic brakes • Engine control module with start/stop system system The stationary vehicle management is implemented by:
• AUTO HOLD Holds the vehicle stationary after braking to a standstill and release of the brake pedal.
• HILL HOLD Prevents Prevent s the vehicle rolling back after rolling to a stop or braking with the brake pedal on an incline and also makes pulling away simple.
• Electromechanical Parking Brake, EPB Safely holds the vehicle stationary on uphill slopes or downhill slopes, regardless of ground incl ination.
15
Braking System AUTO AUT O HOLD HOL D Function The AUTO AUTO HOLD function holds the vehicle on a maximum uphill slope or maximum downhill slope of 30%. At first
the vehicle is held in place using hydraulic pressure. Howe However ver,, if the hydraulic pressure is held for too long,
the solenoids in the ESC module can overheat. As a result, after 3 minutes, the hydraulic hydraulic brake application is “handed over” to the electromechanical parking brake brake (EPB). This prevents the coils of the ESC solenoid valves from being damaged. The hold function is only ended when the driver wants to pull away or ends the AUTO AUTO HOLD function by pressing the button.
Activation Activat ion conditions: – -EPB, ESC fault-free – Driver’s door closed – Driver’s belt lock engaged – AUTO HOLD button pressed – Engine is not running in non-hybrid vehicles – Ready to drive with hybrid vehicles (Ready indicator in display) Readiness is indicated by the warning lamp for AUTO AUTO HOLD, which is in the AUTO HOLD button. S469_149
Function procedure: S469_150
• Driver brakes hydraulically, electromechanical parking brake warning lamp K213 = green • Vehicle is held hydraulically. To protect the valve coils in the ESC control module against overheating, the handover to the EPB will occur after 3 minutes at the latest (K213 turns red).
S469_152
• If the vehicle rolls back, brake pressure is built up one single time via ESC. • If the vehicle rolls again, handover to EPB (K213 turns red).
Upon handover to the EPB, the electromechanical parking brake warning lamp K213 in the dash panel insert changes from green to red.
16
Braking System HILL HOLD Function The HILL HOLD function prevents the vehicle rolling backwards on gradients when gears D or S are selected or when the selector is in the shifting/Tip gate. This occurs both when braking to a standstill and also when rolling to a stop on uphill slopes. This function is always always active. There is no indicator for the HILL HOLD function function in the dash panel insert. The hold function is performed by the transmission. transmission. If the transmission oil temperature is too low (<10°C), (<10°C), the HILL HOLD function is taken over by the ESC function or by the EPB after 3 minutes. The HILL HOLD function is only ended when the driver wants to pull away away..
Activation Activat ion conditions: – Gears D, S or Tip gate – Engine running – Ready to drive in hybrid vehicles (Ready indicator in display)
S469_149
Function procedure: Transmission oil temperature greater than +10°C: The vehicle is held by the transmission locking freewheel of the 8-speed automatic transmission. You will wi ll find more informati information on in SSP S SP 850103 “The 0C8 8-speed Automatic Auto matic Transmiss Transmission. ion.” ” Transmission oil temperature less than +10°C: • If the driver brakes the vehicle or the vehicle rolls to a stop, it will be held hydraulically. hydraulically. In order to protect the valve coils in the ESC control module against overheating, the handover to the EPB will take place after 3 minutes at the latest (K213 turns red). • If the vehicle rolls back, brake pressure is built up one single time via ESC. • If the vehicle rolls again, handover to EPB (K213 turns turns red).
17
Braking System Restart Assist System (Hybrid) (Hy brid) The restart assist system system is directly linked to the start/stop function. It prevents the vehicle vehicle from jolting when the engine is restarted. If the driver starts the engine by releasing the brake pedal, the engine torque is passed to the wheels through the drive train. The vehicle is held in place by the brakes (hydraulically) (hydraulically) until the engine reaches its idling speed. The restart assist system operates independently of the gradient and gear and is only available when the AUTO AUTO HOLD function is not active. The restart assist system system does not have a switch or a warning lamp. There is no feedback for the driver about this function being activated.
Activation Activat ion Conditions: Engine restart after start/stop
Function Procedure: • When the brake pedal is used, the the driver braking pressure is stored. • Stop phase until the engine engine is started. started. • The hydraulic hydraulic brake is released.

Hybrid Electrical Components Electrical Running R unning Gear Components in Hybrid Version When the electric motor is powering the vehicle, vehicle, the combustion engine may be decoupled and off. When this happens, the running gear components still need to be driven. Electric motors take over over all functions normally performed by the combustion engine. These motors supply power to systems such as the braking system and power steering system.
Electrical Power Steering Pump V466 The power steering pump for the electrohydraulic power steering is located in the front left wheel housing underneath the headlight.
Task It provides working pressure for the power steering hydraulic system. system. Regulation is determined determined by vehicle speed, the steering angle and the speed at which the steering wheel is turned.
Effects Upon Failure

Hybrid Electrical Components Brake Servo S ervo Vacuum Vacuum Pump V469 Attached to the front right, under the engine.
Task The brake servo vacuum pump is solely responsible for creating the vacuum when in electric mode. This vacuum provides the necessary pressure for the brake servo servo assistance. It can also run in a supportive role during start-up and in combustion engine mode. In the case that it is playing a supportive role, the vacuum pump would continue to provide the vacuum required to control functions in the coolant pump for the combustion engine. An internal pressure accumulator ensures a pulse-free, constant vacuum.
Effects Upon Failure If the vacuum pump is faulty, the combustion engine will start. The vehicle will no longer operate operate in electric-only mode.

The basic set-up of the self-locking center differential is a simple planetary gear set with a planet carrier, planet gears, an internal gear, and sun wheel. In addition, friction plates are installed in the center differential. The friction plates are made from nickel-plated steel. These friction plates and the ATF ATF oil influence the frictional torque and the locking value of the differential. The frictional torque comes from the self-locking nature of the helical toothing and the force of the sun wheel and internal gear acting on the friction plates.

The transmission output is distributed unequally (40:60 front axle to rear axle). The different different pitch circle diameters of the sun wheel (output to front axle) and internal gear (output to rear axle) create this unequal distribution. 1 = smaller pitch circle diameter: short lever arm/lower torque to front-axle drive 2 = larger pitch circle diameter: longer lever arm/greater torque to rear rear-axle -axle drive

Transfer Case Asymmetric/Dynamic Torque Distribution The function of the differential is to distribute torque between the front and rear axl es. – 20% to 60% of the transmission output torque is sent to the front axle. – 40% to 80% of the transmission output torque is sent to the rear axle. The EDL intervenes outside the locking range of the differential.

In addition to the 40:60 distribution, a frictional torque is created in the differential that is proportional to the drive torque and results in a corresponding locking torque. Basically, the center differential differential reacts to torque changes at the axles. If an axle loses traction, the drive torque within the locking range will immediately be sent to the other axle. The EDL control system intervenes and ensures traction when necessary.

In this example, the Touareg Touareg drives over a small patch of ice (driving mode t2 and t3) with constant drive power. power. The slipping limit* is assumed to be 184.5 lb/ft (250 Nm) on each axle. The total drive torque is (t1 and t4) 738 lb/ ft (1000 Nm). Upon reaching the patch of ice (t2), the front axle loses traction and the drive torque falls to the slipping li mit* of 184.5 lb/ft (250 Nm). At the same time, the drive torque at the rear axle rises to 553 lb/ft (750 Nm), due to the locking effect of the differential. differential. Since the distribution of the torque is within the locking range of the differential, there is no speed difference between the axles. 100% of the the drive power is converted converted into propulsion, no intervention is required from the EDL control system. At the point in time t3, the front axle has already left the patch of ice. Now the rear axle is subject to the reduced frictional value and can only transfer a torque of 184.5 lb/ft (250 Nm). The EDL control system now intervenes to provide support, to ensure optimum traction to the front axle. 85% of the drive power is converted converted into propulsion. * maximum transferrable torque of an axle on the ice surface

Transfer Case Axial Force The axial force is a force that acts in the direction of an axis of a body. The differential gears have de fined helical teeth. The drive torque applies an axial force to the gears, which act on various various friction plates and produce a frictional torque. The frictional torque then leads to the desired locking effect (locking torque). The size of the locking torque is defined by the locking value. The locking value is the factor of the drive torque is sent to the axle with greater traction.

Oil Sump
The 0BU transfer case uses ATF ATF oil for lubrication. The upper shafts and the differential are lubricated using an oil collector and special oil guide. While the vehicle is driven, the chain transports the oil from the oil sump towards the differential, differential, where it is scraped off by the oil collector. collector. The oil guide leads the oil into the differential and onto the input shaft bearing. As soon as the vehicle reaches walking speed, suf ficient oil is delivered. The system works works in both forward and reverse directions. An oil circuit is formed by the centrifugal force in the differential. differential. When the vehicle is stationary, this oil circuit breaks up and coats the internal lubricating points. The differential differential case has been designed so that a certain volume of oil remains when the vehicle is stationary stationary..

Transfer Case Operating Instructions Towing: If the vehicle has to be towed with raised front or rear axle and the wheels of the raised axle cannot turn, exceeding the maximum speed of 31 mph (50 km/h) and maximum towing distance of 19 miles (30 km) can cause internal damage. Also, no gear should should be selected.
Brake Test Stand: A brake test can be performed on a slowly running running test stand (up to 3.5 mph (5.5 km/h)). The wheels must be driven by the test stand. No gear can be selected and the differential lock (if equipped) cannot be engaged.
Output Test Test Stand: Only a 4-wheel roller dynamometer may be used for the output test.
A constant high speed difference between the front and rear axle combined with a high load will damage the center differential.
The self-locking center differential cannot be compared with a 100% mechanical mechanical differential lock. If an axle or a wheel spins without power, there there is no drive. This spinning is controlled by the EDL system.
